Mensa Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) is organizing an intelligence test in Banja Luka, on Saturday, April 22nd, 2023, and in Sarajevo, on Saturday, April 29th, 2023.
Only persons over the age of 17 can take the test on the day of the test. It is necessary to bring any personal document with a photo to the test for identification and verification of the date of birth. Otherwise, it is not possible to take the test.
We emphasize that the results are confidential and known only to the psychologist of Mensa BiH and the candidate himself. The results are delivered exclusively to the candidate via e-mail.
What is Mensa?
Mensa (lat. mensa – table) is the oldest and largest international association of highly intelligent individuals. It was founded in 1946 in England. Its founders are the Australian lawyer Roland Berrill and the English scientist Dr. Lancelot Ware, whose idea was to create an association for above-average intelligent people that would be completely apolitical and free from all racial and religious differences. Mensa worldwide gathers thousands of people whose determined intelligence falls into the upper 2% of the general/total population, with the aim of meeting, socializing, and participating in various activities.
Testing
The test is written and has 36 tasks, and the time to solve it is 40 minutes. The test is graphic and no preparation or prior knowledge is required. The tasks are logical with the answers provided. The tests are conducted under controlled conditions under the supervision of an authorized psychologist of Mensa BiH. Mensa BiH has enabled all interested candidates to check their IQ via a mobile application (only for Android) or via a web application (for all other devices) before the official test. The results of this trial test only give an approximate IQ result. For an accurate result and a valid document, it is necessary to take the official Mensa test.
Testing is only possible for people over 17 years old on the day of testing. It is possible to take the test a maximum of three times during a lifetime and the interval between tests must be at least one year.
